I assume the beverage of choice is couch potato vodka.

"Mind if I crash on your couch" has a different meaning in Calgary.

Hundreds of students ... to celebrate Bermuda Shorts Day.
Isn't that every day in Miami?

One would think that dodging a couch would be fairly easy. On a similar topic, does anyone else wonder why, when someone is being chases down the street by a car (truck, couch, etc.) on television, that person runs in a straight line right down the center of the street?
Frankly, the only time I was run over was by a car I didn't see coming.

Yeah,.... sorry about that, Steve.
Do they use convertibles in those couch races?

I wondered about that myself,Steve. Run to the side! These people were happy because it was 19 degrees outside and they call that shorts weather?
Wait a minute, it was Celsius so in Fahrenheit that would be...... carry the one ...... uh.......warmer than I originally thought.

At the end of the winter semester,
the kids had a downhill fiest-er.
They dodged barracuda
in shorts of bermuda,
till cops did their couches sequester.

The police were able to catch them because they were driving motorized Barcaloungers.

19C = 66F, cindy (more or less).
Modified Couch - WBAGNFARB?
School is over April 16? Sweet. More drinking time.

Of course those couches don't come equipped with air bags, so you have to bring along a professor.

Thank you Jeff. I've never understood the metric system.

Waste of a good Lay-Z-Boy, eh?

At the University of Maryland couches are used as Coleman lanterns; usually because of some sports result and always because of alcohol.

Flagler College in St. Augustine has a LOOONG summer break because of the Florida heat. It is comforting that the Canadians use the same logic.

"Never Mix Alcohol And Furniture On A Toboggan Hill"
What kind of hill is suggested, then?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | April 19, 2010 at 06:04 PM
Isn't "open-alcohol consumption" redundant? Bit tricky to consume it if not open, I should think...

So if it is Bermuda Shorts Day, how come no one in the picture is wearing Bermuda shorts? Kids these days... sheesh.

Must be a northern thing. Does anyone know if there are still bed races at the University of Wisconsin?
BTW, is anyone else concerned about a nurse who doesn't understand the metric system? Give him an inch of serum in that syringe, etc.
PPS, is Centigrade/Celsius actually part of the metric system?

Couches don't kill people, People kill people.

You may think that dodging a couch might be not so difficult. Around the similar subject, does others question why, when someone continues to be chases lower the street having a vehicle
